Today Chicago’s Livestock Show. The Rockefellers and Health. England Decides Today. A Real Railroad Man. ^ By ARTHUR BRISBANE^ Who has not seen the interna tional livestock show now open in Chicago has missed something more interesting than the opening of congress. Yesterday you might have seen the super-champion “Great polled shorthorn bull Royal Choice Sultan," winner of the first prize and the prize winning steer weighing a ton and a quarter. Two sons of Royal Choice Sul tan. each a year old, lay in the straw near him. One sold for $1,000, the other for $300. The $1,000 steer had been nursed by two cows, one beside his own mother up to the day of the show. The other, smaller, nursed his mother only, with no supplemen tary nurse. What chance has a calf, or a human baby, with no nursing mother at all? Among the sheep there were no caraculs. Mr. 0. T. Henkle, the able manager of the stockyards, should attend to that. Lambs that have caracul rams for fathers are born jet black and curly providing excellent caracul fur, even when their mothers are •snow white. Caracul raising should be easy, and profitable, in mountain regions. There are no “mulefoot” hogs in the swine department. “Pig men” say the mulefoot is a failure and it is all nonsense about that hdg being immune to hog cholera. This will surprise and grieve Judge Gary of the Steel corporation. He raises mule foots at his Long Island place, con- . vinced that hog cholera cannot reach them, and advised this writer by all means to change from Jersey Durocs to mulefoot. You forget all about politics, war, freight rates, finance, when you see that wonderful collection of 11,000 pure bred animals and the earnest men that breed them, concentrating on food production. They are the happy, really inter ested men of this world. They deal with realities that do not dis appoint them. John D. Rockefeller, jr.* says health and disease must be han dled as international affairs. Span ish influenza taught us after this war what other plagues have taught us, after other wars, that disease knows no country and de spises distance, traveling as Mr. Rockefeller says, along the trade routes. The Rockefeller Institute has set a good example to the govern . nents t>f the world, spending mil ions to conquer disease, not only !n this country but in foreign lands vhence plagues start on their ravels. The Rockefeller institute fights sease in China and has under ' ken the gigantic an*l noble task f eliminating yellow fever entire t by killing it off, once and for all, n places where it is endegpic. For that service the Rockefellers will be remembered when men shall have long forgotten the tri fling fact that Mr. Rockefeller was ♦he world’s richest man. Today England decides for or against protection and free trade, Lloyd George and Baldwin. Lloyd George tells Englishmen that London grows more quickly than New York because England has free trade. That may be, al though New York has done fairly well considering the age of the two cities. And what is good for London, chief city of a country that cannot feed its inhabitants, is not necessarily good for New York, chief city of a nation that could easily feed the entire population of the world. Our problem is to keep our work and money here in the family, keep our people busy, prove our kind of government a success and gradually improve that govern ment. It doesn’t seem likely that the British will vote against Lloyd George or radically change their established policy of free trade. You will soon know as the vote comes in. Lloyd George pre dicts an election in his favor by 1,000,000, and he knows Britain. Sir William Mackenzie, Ca nadian railroad builder, dead at 74, belonged to the old school of real railroad builders like Hill and Harriman. Modern railroad men, that build up combinations with the ticker and build up rates with the assistance of an obliging Inter state Commerce commission are poor substitutes for the old kind. The verdict of South Dakota, giving the republican choice to Coolidge, the democratic to Mc Adoo, the farmers nonpartisan, to La Follette, beating Hiram John son and Ford is interesting, but has little meaning. At this mo ment politicians say the odds favor Coolidge and McAdoo. There’s a long time before next June. Senator Masabeau would make every Frenchman ineligible to pub lic office unless he has at least three children. That is to help the birth rate. The children may be adopted. Whether it is wise to force men or women to become fathers and mothers is doubtful. The important thing is the quality of the child and that depends on the spirit in which it is created and the welcome it gets from its parents, especially from its ■nother. Daniel Piegare was arrested yesterday at Chicago’s Guardian Angel church for acting as under taker without a license. It doesn’t seem important who buries a man once lie is dead. More important are bogus icenses issued to bogus doctors, and the other doctors, ignorant in spite of regular licenses, that sup ply the undertakers with their raw material. (Coeyrlsht. »»«•» r G. A. Hoagland KJ Dies at Horae After Stroke Came to Omaha in 1861 and Established First Lum ber Yard in City. George A. Hoagland, 80, pioneer Nebraska lumberman, died at his home. 510 North Forty-eighth street, at 3 Thursday morning following a Stroke of apoplexy which he suffered Wednesday evening at 7. Mr. Hoagland Is survived by a son, William Hoagland; two daughters, Mrs. J. E. Summers, wife of Dr. J. E. Summers, and Mrs David L. Stone, wife of Colonel Stone, who recently returned from Germany, and 12 grandchildren. Mr. Hoagland was born in Boones ville, Mo., May 20, 1843. His only education was received In the local high school. From school he entered the lumber business of his father. George T. Hoagland, lat£r moving the business to Omaha In 1861, as George T. Hoagland A Son. Established First Lumber Yard Omaha at that time had no rail roads and transportation was all done by water. The first lumber yard In Nebraska was established by the Hoaglands on what Is now the Millard hotel site at Thirteenth and Doug las streets. It consisted of a crude, frame office with lumber piled up in the rear. In 1874, George A. Hoagland bought out his father, who retired. The firm was then known as the George A. Hoagland company, until 1914, when the son, William W. Hoagland, entered the firm and the name was changed to George A. Hoagland A Co. Mr. Hoagland was the builder of the Orchard A Whllhelm. Thompson A Belden, United States Rubber com pany and Gordon-Rainalter buildings. He was an intense fisherman and hunter. At one time he was the best shot in Nebraska and once held the Nebraska trapshooting championship. He was a member of the original Omaha Gun club and up until the time of his death was the only sur vivor of that organization. George A. Hoagland was the only man in Omaha who was in business here in 1861 and still was active in that business this year. Each year he spent the months between May and September at his favorite hobby of fishing and hunting at the north ern lakes. He was six feet two inches tall, weighed 190 pounds and wns In ap parently perfect health when he cele brated his 80th birthday last May. At that time he attributed his re markable agility to the fact that In all his habits of living he had always been moderate. Daughter In St. Louis. Mrs. W. W. Hoagland, who Is In St. Louis with her daughter, Miss Helen Hoagland, will not be able to return for the funeral. The condition of Miss Helen, who has not yet re covered from an operation performed upon her face last week, will not per mit their return, according to Mrs. J. E. Summers, an aunt of Miss Hoag land. Rev. Charles W. Savidge this morn ing expressed deep ‘ grief over the death of his friend, Mr. Hoagland. "No death in Omaha In recent years, outside my own family, has so affected me," he declared. He related that In 1906, when he was collecting funds for the House of Hope, and had accumulated only $1,500, he visited Mr. Hoagland with an appeal for funds, and was given a check for $2,000, which assured the success of the venture. Bids Opened on Fremont Light Plant Equipment Fremont, Neb., Dec. 6.—The Fre mont board of public works today opened bids for the purchase of $100,000 of new equipment for the municipal light and power plant, an expenditure approved at a recent meeting of the city council. Efforts of the Continental Gas A Electric company of Omaha to add Fremont to its list of client cities on one of its high tension lines, were too late to receive favorable consld eratlon. Installation of additional equipment at the plant has been made necessary by the natural deterioration of the present machinery and by the con stantly Increasing load the pfant must bear.

By MARK SULUVAN. Washington, Dec. 6.—If direct presidential primaries were held throughout the whole country this week, the outcome would be practical ly identical ■with the result of the South Dakota test of strength. The South Dakota event, it Is true, was not a primary and otherwise had less the natpre of a true political ba rometer than is the popular inter pretation put upon It. Nevertheless, every well posted politician in both parties knows that just as Coolidge won over Johnson in South Dakota, and as McAdoo won over Ford so would they win in four out of five of the states if—and this is the import ant qualification—the test of strength came today. Coolidge is far in the lead for the republican nomination; and McAdoo is far in the lead for the democratic nomination. The whole problem of their opponents is to head them off. All the initial momentum is in favor of these two men. They can be beat en only by the energy and organiz ing ability of their respective op ponents or by their own mistakes, or by some turn of events beyond their control. To I'se Different Tactics. The principal factor is the energy and resourcefulness of their respec tive opponents. In the case of John son, his organization is Just getting under way, and his fortunes depend chigfly on what he and his extremely energetic and resourceful political managers can do In six months. In the case of the opponents of McAdoo, they are not going to try to beat Mc Adoo In the same way that Johnson is going to try to beat Coolidge. Opponents of McAdoo will not at tempt anything very formidable in the way of a nationwide organization or intensive campaigning. They are going to rely on the well-known two thirds rule of the democratic party, which makes it possible for McAdoo's opponents to veto his nomination by having one-third of the delegates, or 365 out of 1,094. McAdoo's opponents feel, and are Justified in feeling, that In spite of McAdoo's great present tead, they can have, without necessarily working very energetically, the one-third ne ressary to veto his nomination. For this necessary one-third, McAdoo’s op ponents depend largely on Hjose states where the organization Is strongly under the control of the local leaders, such as New York, Indiana, and Illinois. 40 States for McAdoo. Nevertheless, if McAdoo makes much further gains beyond what he now has, he will have a prestige such as will cause the anti-McAdoo leaders some difficulty in holding their one third together. McAdoo, to win, must have 730 delegates. Today he has In sight close to 500. McAdoo's present strength is much greater than la sup posed. Out of 48 states, McAdoo will have some delegates from at least 40 states. From most of the states west of the Mississippi, McAdoo will have most of the delegates solidly. More over, the trend Is In McAdoo's direc tion. He Is by far the most widely known of all the democratic possibil ities, except Henry Ford; and as the South Dakota event demonstrates, Ford Is not to be taken seriously as a democratic contender, and cannot be unless Ford personally goes Into the fight In a spirit which so far ho has refused to show. Ford has a very large personal fol lowing, but the writer does not know of any state where this Ford follow ing has political leadership or Is so or ganized as to be effective politically. Senator Undei*wood Is far more for midable as a contender against Mc Adoo than Is Henry Ford. New Shoes Brins: Christmas Cheer Givers’, Kiddies’ and Mothers’ Heartg Made Glad by Free Shoe Fund. Only 18 days till Christmas! And already the holiday good cheer, the spirit of good will and kindness, Is creeping In on us. If we would gratify that spirit in a practical way there is no better means offered than The Omaha Bee Free Shoe fund.

Leus J. Lultz, one of the heirs, was appointed manager of the estate, which consists of about 600 acres of the best land in Nemaha county, un til January 1, 1926.

Senator Hiram Johnson of Cali fornia, who has announced that he intends to put his best effortH into the fight to get the republican nom ination for himself, was not among those' who Heard the president's speech. He spent the day in New York conferring with Frank Hitch cock, his manager, and others who are going to help him in his campaign for the nomination. He went away without leaving behind him any state ment of his opinions respecting the message. George Harvey, former ambassador to the court of 8t. James and R. B. Creager, endorsed by President Harding for the amlmssadorshlp to Mexico, and still waiting to get It from Coolidge, were in the president's gallery. Many women occupied seats be longing to members on the floor. This started an outcry, which led to the adoption of a resolution, by Frank Clark of Florida, to have the ser geant-at-arms remove them. None of them left their seats, however, and many members were obliged to stand. Court Stand Applauded. The speech was listened to with respectful attention. Republicans generally applauded it. Insurgent pro gressives were silent, while the democrats gave their applause only to the endorsement of the world court proposal, which is the nearest they hope to get to the Wilson plan for a league of1 nations. The president’s declaration that the United States will not jiln the league was loudly applauded by the republican mem bers. The greatest amount of applause was given to the declarations In favor of preparedness, restricted immlgra tion and care of the veterans. When the president entered the hall, escorted by five senators and the same number of representatives, he was given an ovation that lasted a full minute. He stoofl quietly be fore the speaker’s stand, drew from an inner pocket of his smart-looking "cutaway" coat a brown leather case from which he extracted his spec tacles, and calmly adjusted them about his ears as the applause con fined. Speaker Glllett finally brought the demonstration to a close with a sharp rap of his gavel. Beginning his speech, the president was visibly nervous. He warmed up toward the close, his final appeal for idealism and practical use of moral power being delivered In a ringing voice that revealed considerable power behind it.

Leave other folks' affairs alone And attend strictly to your own. —Nanny Meadow Mouae. Mr. Mocker Lrada the Way. Danny Meadow Mouse had just said that he wished he could see the Salamander that his friend Mocker the Mockingbird knew down there Jn the sunny south. •"Follow me," said Mocker. "I re member now that I noticed some of his little sand hills not far from here, and some of them looked new. If he Is at work over there, and I think he Is, jA-haps you will have a chance to see him.” So Danny and Nanny Meadow Mouse followed Mr. Mocker, and pres ently they came to a place where a number of little mounds of sand were scattered about. Mr. Mocker looked these over sharply. Finally he stopped Just above one. He called Danny Meadow Mouse over. "He's here,” said Mr. Mocker, "He made that sand pile this morning. If you'll open his door In the middle you probably will have a chance to see him.” Then Mr. Mocker laughed at the funny expression on the face of Danny Meadow Mouse. You see, Danny couldn’t see ary door. All he could see was Just a mound of sand. "Climb up on that mound and dig right In the middle of it," commanded Mr. Mocker. Danny hesitated. He knew nothing about the maker of that mound. He didn't know how big he was. He didn't like the Idea of opening a door of another jSerson's house. He said so. Mr. Mocker laughed. "That isn't teally his home,” he exclaimed. "His home is somewhere underground, but where I haven't the least Idea. He has been digging a tunnel right near here and he had to get rid of the sand, so he pushed it out in this pile. When he pushed the last lot out he closed the opening by packing It full of sand. All you have to do Is to dig that sand out, and then go off to a place where you will feel safe and can watch. I am quite sure you will not have to wait long to see my friend Salamander." "Don’t you do It, Danny." said Nanny Meadow Mouse. "No pood Jtf »»T Then he climbed up on that little mound of sand and made ready to dig. ever comes from meddling in the af fairs of other people." But Danny's curiosity had been aroused. With every minate it grew stronger. Besides, he trusted Mr. Mocker. He didn’t believe Mr. Mocker would get him in any trou ble. The spirit of adventure was in Danny. He wanted to learn all he could about this gunny south and the people who lived there. Besld*-«, he wanted to know about the tunnel* that Mr. Mocker said Salamamlei made. Those tunnels might be very useful to Nanny and himself son* time, Just as more than one* the tunnels of Miner the Mole on the Green Meadows had been useful tc them. Bo Danny hesitated only a few minutes. Then he climbed up on that little mound of sand and made ready to dig. (Copyright, mi) The next story: ‘ A New Acquaint ance."
